When IronMind officially opened the Captains of Crush (CoC) Silver Bullet Hold for women (using a CoC No. 2), Elizabeth Horne was on everyone’s short list as a major contender for the world record.

IronMind reviewed the performance and it’s official: Elizabeth Horne can be proud to have set the inaugural women’s world record in CoC Silver Bullet Hold, leading the way for more top performances in this popular grip strength challenge.
Elizabeth Horne's world record performance on the CoC Silver Bullet was part of Rob Russell’s 2012 Yorkshire Grip Classic, where Rob was the overall winner and that included a victory in the CoC Silver Bullet Hold with a big time of 35.37 seconds.
Incidentally, David Horne, while not competing in the overall competition, notched a time of 37.97 seconds in the CoC Silver Bullet hold, as he hunts the men’s world record.
Congratulations, Elizabeth Horne!
